Kaidan's Short Stories: Vol. 1 - Teen

{Slice of life story

considered comedy too

I'll read it with you}

The sun rose up high

guided by Celestia

waking up Twilight.

Rolling over once

burying her head deeper

she was up all night.

Star swirl the bearded

was an intriguing subject

for late night study.

Was it two or three?

her eyelids sagging so low

admitting defeat.

Her head hit the desk

Bringing the world back to light

it was time for rest.

Admitting defeat

she had climbed into her bed

for a fitful sleep.

Now clinging the quilt

she blocked out the cruel sunlight

to ease her fatigue.

Spike trotted past her

wise not to disturb her rest

he went to get food.

Warmly snuggled up

she could stay here all day long

but she was not Dash.

Fifteen minutes more

half an hour was the worst case

and she would awake.

With one final dream

of a Rainbow Factory

and a yellow shed.

"Wow that was quite weird

I should not eat before bed"

was all Twilight said.

To perturbed to sleep

she decided to get up

and find some coffee.

With a clop of hooves

down twenty-two wooden steps

she reached the ground floor.

Into the kitchen

Twilight trotted and could see

a horrific sight

Spike had forgotten

to go to the marketplace

and buy coffee beans.

Sweet Celestia,

what have I done to deserve

a horrible fate?
